2003 Dow

[RonnieRoots]

Tasted March 2007:

These ports were tasted at ProWein and I only made short notes.

Warre's 2003 VP
Very nice elegant style, but no lightweight for sure. I liked this a lot, and would give it maybe two or three points more than the 89WS rating.

Dow's 2003 VP
Notably sweeter than other Dow's VP's, but still a hardliner. Very obvious tannin structure, firm and showing good promise for the future.

Graham's 2003 VP
I'm not the biggest fan of Graham's, but I liked this a lot. It's like a fine 'bonbon'. Good concentration, and a lovely flavour profile. Already very enjoyable, but will age nicely for sure.
